Get to know Jetze

As a young boy, Jetze would ride his handbike to school. What started as a practical solution grew into his passion and sport. “In 2008, I was invited as a talent to attend the Paralympic Games in Beijing. From that moment on, I wanted to do everything I could to become the best in the world in my disciplines.” In 2010, he decided to fully focus on elite sports, and that decision paid off brilliantly. Over the years, he has achieved success after success.
